Police contacted Dott about the allegations in 2001, but no charges were brought, before the woman gave a new statement in 2025.
A second victim told the court Dott began abusing him when he was about eight years old, shortly after the snooker player had won the world title.
The man, now in his 20s, said he was abused in a shower and a car and that Dott gave him food, drinks and money.
Lewd and libidinous practices refer to any sexual crimes against children committed prior to 1 December 2010.
The offence was abolished in 2009, but is still used for crimes carried out before then.
Det Insp Gary Smillie, of Police Scotland, described Dott as a “dangerous individual”.
Dott, from Glasgow, had previously called the allegations made against him “disgusting”.
